remely cold all over Which of the following best explains how the atmosphere helps to keep Earth insulated and warm?
The atmosphere creates heat as Earth moves through space helping to warm the climate
The atmosphere traps the heat energy generated by Earth's core helping to maintain the climate
The atmosphere traps heat energy from the Sun and energy radiated from Earth's surface helping to maintain Earth's climate

Answer:

The atmosphere traps heat energy from the Sun and energy radiated from Earth's surface helping to maintain Earth's climate

Explanation:

Earth's atmosphere keeps much of the Sun's energy from escaping into space. This process, called the greenhouse effect, keeps the planet warm enough for life to exist. The atmosphere allows about half of the Sun's heat energy (50%) to reach Earth's surface.

How many joules would it take to raise 2 grams of AL 1 degree?
denis23 [38]

Explanation:

Air has a heat capacity of about 700 Joules per kg per °K and a density of just 1.2 kg/m3, so its initial energy would be 700 x 1 x 1.2 x 293 = 246,120 Joules

What happens to the particles in matter when hear energy is added to them
Ipatiy [6.2K]
There are two possible situations.
1) If a phase change is not occurring, then the heat added contributes to increased translational energy of the particles. What that means is the particles move/vibrate faster.
2) If a phase change is occurring, then the heat added contributes to the breaking of bonds or intermolecular forces (depending on the chemical nature of the matter you're dealing with).
